She has never seen a pro-illegal immigrant bill, nor anti-gun bill, she doesn&#8217;t like, so expect them to be hot-button topics. As (whether officially or not) border czar, she was notable for distancing herself both from the topic and the border, albeit taking administration credit for perceived improvement.
